9 favourite responses to that Boris Johnson/Carrie Symonds post-row picture
As can’t possibly have escaped your attention, police were called to Boris Johnson’s home after a neighbour reported a loud row he was having with his partner, Carrie Symonds.
Now a photo has ’emerged’ of the couple to reassure everyone – in the absence of Boris saying anything about it – that, you know, everything’s fine and dandy and can he be PM now please?
First it appeared in the Mail and now the Evening Standard and pretty much everywhere, obviously.

Honestly even Katie Price knows the long-shot-through-grass thing won't wash. This is such cack-handed PR, Nick Clegg could be in charge of it pic.twitter.com/VjA3177jZq

It’s very upsetting that Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds’s privacy has been invaded once again. This time by a photographer who appears to have been hiding in exactly the right bush to capture a picture of them holding hands to demonstrate their love

We need to know if the photographer voted leave or remain https://t.co/B6D7YB9lMN

but when someone happens to snap a pic of a couple in a private moment & they're smiling, that's not an invasion of privacy pic.twitter.com/vNZBkmv7is

PS a photographer writes …
It's this photographer's opinion that these shots aren't even particularly long telephoto lens ones. The photographer will have been WELL within sight of these two clowns and the rest of their PR team whilst they orchestrated this visual vomit for rabid conservatives to swallow. pic.twitter.com/Tbk7J4vI7B
